📌 MAROKO133 Hot ai: ChatGPT Is Saying VWeird Things in Chinese Wajib Baca
If you thought English-language ChatGPT-prose was annoying, just wait until you get a load of its conversational habits in Chinese.
A fascinating piece of reporting by Wired took a look at how ChatGPT handles Chinese, the global language with the highest number of native speakers, according to the Language School at Middlebury College.
One of its go-to tics, the publication reports, is to answer questions with “我会稳稳地接住你,” which literally translates to “I will catch you steadily,” a phrase signalling willingness to talk about a person’s feelings (as Wired’s Zeyi Yang notes, a more flowerly translation could be “I’ll hold you steadily through whatever comes,” though the sentiment is apparently irritating to Chinese speakers either way.)
At other times, ChatGPT will tell its Chinese users “砍一刀,” which means either “help me cut it once,” or “slash the price,” an obnoxious bit of ad copy parroted by Chinese eCommerce platform Pinduoduo, Wired notes.
The odd mannerisms are so ubiquitous that they’ve become a meme among Chinese netizens, with some depicting ChatGPT as a giant inflatable airbag placed to break someone’s fall — catching them steadily.
The problem, Wired observes, may come down to a phenomenon called “mode collapse,” a fundamental bias tracing back to the people training large language models (LLMs). Basically, the idea goes that when human data annotators comb through text to train AI chatbots, they unknowingly favor familiar turns-of-phrase over more foreign-sounding sentences.
After an LLM like ChatGPT is trained, it becomes difficult to force it to “unlearn” certain phrases. While AI developers can reinforce the usage of a particular response — “I will catch you steadily” may be a great answer in a particular situation — accounting for range and quantity is a different beast altogether.
“We don’t know how to say: ‘this is good writing, but if we do this good writing thing 10 times, then it’s no longer good writing,” Max Spero, cofounder and CEO of AI-writing detector Pangram, told Wired.
Whatever the cause, it’s nice to know when English-speakers agree on something with our Chinese brethren, even if it’s just a universal hatred for ChatGPT’s inane babble.

📌 MAROKO133 Hot ai: Japan Deploying Combat Drones Made of Cardboard Edisi Jam 06:4
We’ve heard of DIY drone kits before, but this is ridiculous.
Japan’s minister of defense Shinjirō Koizumi recently announced that the island country had begun deploying easily-replaceable combat drones made almost entirely of corrugated cardboard. Developed by Japanese arms manufacturer AirKamuy, the AirKamuy 150 drone is a fixed-wing craft constructed out of the same stuff as Amazon boxes, designed to be spat out of an assembly line en masse.
According to a post by Koizumi on X-formerly-Twitter, the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force is already using the drones as “targets,” though whether for Japanese military target practice or as some type of decoy isn’t entirely clear.
According to Tom’s Hardware, the flying shoeboxes cost between $2,000 to $2,500 per piece, which are bargain bin prices compared to the already low-cost Shahed drone deployed by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps that cost anywhere from $20,000 to $50,000 apiece.
Each drone is also foldable, and can be fully assembled out-of-the-box in around five minutes, an AirKamuy employee told NHK World-Japan. Despite sporting a basic propulsion system held up by cardboard, they boast a flight-time of 80 minutes, and an impressive top-speed of around 62 miles per hour.
Per AirKamuy, the rapid production process is meant to allow the drones to be developed by any old machinist with access to a cardboard die-cutter, as opposed to a highly specialized aerospace company.
“There is strong demand for low-cost drones that can operate in large numbers, and over long distances,” AirKamuy CEO Yamaguchi Takumi in an interview with NHK. “This model can be manufactured at any cardboard plant, ensuring high mass production capability and a robust supply chain.”
